Not many are aware that you can purchase ".me.uk" & ".org.uk" domains for just over £6 each including vat for two years - excellent for your initials, nickname, etc. and creating a short e-mail address without giving up your ISP (Internet Service Provider). For example: amy@aj4.me.uk can forward to amy1011121314@aol.com.

In addition the ".com", ".net", ".org", ".info" domains, etc. are all available at reasonable prices if you want the confidence of dealing with a UK company. Owned by Pipex a web hosting operation in linked premises in Nottingham where they are just a phone call or e-mail away. 24/24 hour support is offered on hosting and a premium phone line is used for domain name registration support to assist with the costs of providing this service.

(123-reg offer a price guarantee but have as yet been unable to qualify this - we suggest you buy at their fair prices if you want a UK domain or the security of a UK Company with the global "TLDs" and ignore any guarantee. The small difference if any will not be worth worrying about. In addition, if you can register 10 or 30 domains at once you will receive discounts varying from less than 0.5% on ".uk" domains to over 16% on ".com"s, etc.)

You will be able to see some of the premium domains that are available to register, complete with guided tour and what are still comparative bargains! Everybody seems to be paranoid about the value of the ".com" but my www.x2.cc works just as well and there are very few characters to type. If you are a multi-national company with a short distinctive name you have probably secured all the major combinations of your name such as German car manufacturer BMW. However there are still many combinations left using an alternative to ".com".

The short ".tv" domains are only available at a premium price but there are still available many ".cc"s at a regular price that could be used as a distinctive shortcut to a fully descriptive ".com"!
